raised from Cape seeds with scarcely any variation in
them. We believe it has been generally considered as
a variety of P. glutinomm, but it certainly differs more
from that than that does from P. quertifolium: both
the habit of the plant, and the form of the leaves and
flowers, are altogether totally dissimilar; the whole
plant is covered with a shining viscous substance which
sticks to the fingers on the slightest touch. It is a tall
strong-growing plant and very hardy, requiring only a
common greenhouse or warm room to protect it in
winter. A mixture of turfy loam and peat suits it very
well, or any light vegetable mould, and cuttings strike
root freely if planted in pots and placed in'a sheltered
situation.
Our drawing was taken at the Nursexy of Messrs.
Colvill, from a plant that was raised from seed that
had been received from the Cape.
